Support
Buckeye Healthy Schools Alliance (BHSA) recognizes that health, education, and business can work together to support school health education to improve the health status of Ohio’s young people.
Ohio currently does NOT have health education standards. The foundation for improving school health education is having quality state health education standards. Therefore, BHSA supports legislation for Ohio to adopt the National Health Education Standards. This legislation will require no new funding and will allow for decision about health content that is taught to be made at the local level.
If you or your organization would like to support efforts to adopt state Health Education Standards in Ohio, please use the form below. While the effort is not currently focused on health content, state standards are a vital step to provide a framefork for quality health education instruction. Please consider joining the effort!
